How can one measure
friendship —
The firm, warm clasp of a

The comfort in the
welcome sound
Of the words, "I
understand"?
How can one measure
courage —
The strength we find to
fight,
To suffer life's anxieties,
To stand up for the right?

All the laughs, and now the tears
Miss Claire Birtz
Southbridge's Art Department the last thirty-six years has been vibrantly colored by
the vivacity and generosity of Miss Claire Birtz. After study under Farnsworth, Brack-
man, and Deering, Miss Birtz became art instructor for the entire school system. Later
she undertook supervision of the system's art instruction with more time to focus on
the varied needs of SHS's aspiring artists. Miss Birtz describes her profession as "not
just teaching art . but finding the individual's unique ability," and has based her
guidance on encouragement of self-development. Now Miss Birtz leaves SHS to pur-
sue her two main interests: painting and ecology. She plans to fill her retirement lei-
sure in paintings and lectures for the conservation of Southbridge. To Miss Birtz we
leave a canvass-ful of thanks and wishes for the brightest of futures in retirement's
multi-colored palette.

Mrs. Rose Proulx
Nous esperons que vous allez avoir beaucoup
de bonne chance dans les annees prochaines.
After 34 years of teaching Mrs. Rose Proulx has acquired:
The education of a college president,
the executive ability of a financier,
the humility of a deaconess,
the adaptability of a chameleon,
the optimism of a mountain climber,
the courage of a heroine,
the wisdom of a serpent,
the gentleness of a dove,
the patience of Job,
the grace of God, and
the persistence of the Devil.

With anticipation and excitement, the SHS population wel-
comed a new Vice-Principal, Mr. Donald DuPont to join
the ranks of the administration. Mr. DuPont received his
A.B. from Providence College, his M.A.T. from Assumption
College, and recently obtained his CAGS from the Univer-
sity of Connecticut. We hope that he has found his first
year at SHS a fulfilling one.

And sing it ali day long.
A song that never

How can I tell you all

Rivers of endless
tides
have passed beneath
my feet,
All too soon they
had me
standing on my
own . . .

We're part of the fire
that is burning,
And from the ashes
we can build
another day.
And in the morning of my
life
And in the evening of my
day
I will try to understand
in what you say.

Babes In Toy land
Days were fast
but full of life —
a lemon-lime holiday in the gym,
sticky hands and cracked mushrooms,
a carousel that never was.
We laughed at everything.
Still I can recall
Bo Peep's sheep,
creating and redoing the same wall
of masterpiece,
All in preparation for a breathless walk
into Toyland's mysterious atmosphere
of blissful fantasy.

Fashion Show
On November eighth, the Junior
Class, with much preparation be-
hind them, successfully presented a
Fashion Show. Students of each class
and members of the faculty mod-
eled a brilliant variety of clothing
contributed by local merchants. It
was a truly well-executed affair from
the top of Mr. Thomas' shining head
to the tips of Mary Bank's toes.

Class spirit blossomed to spaghetti
and meatballs on November 11 as
S.H.S. proudly greeted its first Se-
nior Supper. Mr. Teguis' hardy
crew set out to prompt fun and
enthusiasm in the hearts of class-
mates and faculty, and succeed
they did. The overwhelming atmo-
sphere, set by music, candlelight,
and cooperation shrowded all in
bliss and satisfaction. One high
point of the evening was the pres-
entation of a mysterious birthday
cake to Miss Turner. This night, the
class of '73 proved that the class
that plays together, stays together.

production of Gramercy Ghost. Under the outstanding

long hours rehearsing for the final successful outcome.
Jim Santo, as Parker, added a bit of humor to the play,
while Chris Jarvis, alias Nathaniel, added that mysteri-

The International Buffet
The coming of Spring 1972 brought along the return of
the S.H.S. International Buffet. Through the hard ef-
forts of home economics students and cafeteria staff,
everyone got a chance to sample a taste of exquisite
foreign cuisine.

Student Council
December 1st, 1972 marked an important day
because of the women faculty members who
made their debuts on the basketball court
while challenging the SHS Girls' Varsity Bas-
ketball Team: Among the outstanding per-
formers were: Mrs. Sullivan ("Sully"), Miss
O'Connell ("the mysterious one"), Miss
Tremblay ("Pigtails"), and of course "always
on the floor" Miss Miskavich.
Basketball Game
Looking at the other side, the SHS male faculty
took on the Well's men in a more serious con-
test. Wells chalked up the victory, but our fac-
ulty remained number one in our hearts. The
humorous evening was fun for all and a tre-
mendous success as a fund-raising event for
the SHS Student Council.

Year-round spirit can never surpass
that of this Fall, 1972. The hustle-
and-bustle of students, band, major-
ettes, cheerleaders, and faculty alike
made for enthusiastic rallies, the
spirit then being transferred to the
playing field.
Pumpkin
Pow-Wow
For trick-or-treat Halloween enter-
tainment, the busy S.H.S. Student
Council, under the advisorship of
Mr. Larson, sponsored a second buf-
fet-party. Among the one hundred
guests were 3 birds, a cannibal, a
Santa, a chain-gang, and the ugliest
"lady" ever seen. The highlight of
the exciting evening was a terror-
filled creep through the darkened
halls of S.H.S., ending with mysteri-
ous hands reaching out from no-
where. You can be sure that many
raced home with road-runner speed
haunted by thoughts of the "Curse
of the Living Corpse."

Model U.N. Congress
December 14th-17th saw a group of elev-
en SHS Seniors attending a Model United
Nations, sponsored by Harvard Universi-
ty, at Boston's Sheraton-Plaza Hotel.
Aside from being a social event, the
Model U.N. attempted to promote an
understanding of the purposes and func-
tions of the world body. The 1972 Harvard
Model U.N. drew together 700 high
school students from throughout the
United States and Canada, with each high
school group playing the role of diplo-
mats representing countries all over the
world engaging in delicate negotiations
and political maneuvers. From the Gener-
al Assembly to Security Council meetings
and even to late-evening parties, the elev-
en that attended can vouch that it was an
unusual and intellectually stimulating
experience.

National Honor Society Induction
The Cole-Corbin Chapter of the National Honor Society held its
first annual induction on Thursday, February 8th. Under the new
advisorship of Mr. Loconto, the Society inducted five Juniors and
one Senior. Those students who qualified for National Honor So-
ciety membership were asked to complete an application and
then each student was carefully screened by a committee consist-
ing of administration, guidance, and faculty. The induction itself
was presented to the student body in a novel manner. A slide
presentation set to music was the highlight of the assembly, along
with a brief concert by the S.H.S. Scarlet Troubadours. The newly-
inducted members were welcomed into the National Honor So-
ciety at a reception held for them that evening.
120
Winter Carnival
S.H.S. was transformed into a "Cartoon Factory" during
the week of February 12-17 by ever-enthusiastic "elves of
fantasy." With the aid of Fat Albert, Pogo, and Winnie-
the-Pooh, Mr. Larson's Student Council boost-
ed the second annual Winter Carnival to mid-winter folly.
Each class did its best for success in events such as volley-
ball, mural painting, and pie-eating. The Seniors manifest-
ed four years ability in theme and poster contests; the
Sophomores surprised all in their basketball prowess; and
the Freshmen and Juniors added much in their newly
mustered talents. Saturday night's dance featuring the
well-known rock band "Fate", was the center of much
activity when Senior Geraldine Lees was crowned
"Queen of the 1973 Winter Carnival" and many trophies
were awarded to first-place contest winners. In the end,
the winning class of Sophomores proved their unity and
spirit undefiable, and the second annual Winter Carnival
came to a reluctant close.

♦Annual Northbridge Jamboree
Football 1972
Southbridge 6
Head Coach Don Marino's 13th season at Southbridge High
began, as most do, with a great deal of well-founded optimism
as several key players he would be relying on during the
season had valuable experience from the previous year. The
year 1971 had been a rebuilding year and the Pioneers had
won six games against but three losses. They had also shared
the Border Conference Championship. All things considered,
it was no wonder the Marino-men enthusiastically approached
the 1972 season.
The season began with the traditional Jamboree played in
Northbridge. The Pioneers wasted little time getting on
the scoreboard as they easily defeated host Northbridge High
by the score of 28-6. Both the offensive and defensive
units stood out in this contest and Southbridge players and
fans alike looked forward to the home opener against Clinton
the following week.
The season officially opened one week later as our gridders
hosted an always strong Clinton Gaels team. Southbridge's
famed defensive unit, dubbed the "Big D", proved that defense
would again play a key role in our season's success. The
defensive unit, led by middle linebacker and co-captain Mike
Garcia, co-captain John Roy, Henry Dubreuil, Mike Benjamin,
Marty Power, Marcel Besse and Phil Lanctot held the Gaels at
bay while the offense triggered by quarterback Dario Ciovacco
scored 22 points.
The following week Southbridge hosted the potent Gardner Wi
cats. Prior to the season, Coach Marino had expressed high regai
for this perrenial "Class A" powerhouse. He proved to be prophe
as the Wildcats gave the Pioneers One of its toughest games of t
year. Southbridge prevailed, however, by the score of 12-7.
Our first away game was against Auburn High School) "Class
champs the previous season, but patsies this year as we co.mpfet
demolished the Dandies 42-6. Notable in this game were Mike C
cia's four touchdowns and the always stingy Pioneer defense.
Hopefully, night games are a thing of the past. On a cold Friday r\\{
in Hudson we fell to the Hawks by a score of 6-0. Our offense sp
tered as Hudson played inspired football. Our vaunted defer
played well enough allowing but one touchdown, but that's all Hi
son needed to win. Making matters worse, two of our key playt
Mike Garcia and Marty Power were injured. Marty would sub:
quently miss one, and Mike the next three games, a serious blow
our earlier undefeated hopes. On the positive side, Dave Caoue
regained his eligibility status at about this time. His running tale
would sorely be needed now that Mike Garcia was out of the lineuj

Dreams of an undefeated season gone, Southbridge now
concentrated on the Central Massachusetts "Class B"
Crown. Our chief opponents for the distinction seemed
to be the eventual winner, Shrewsbury High School.
Another loss would be disastrous, and unfortunately
that occured in our next game. Sadly depleted by
injuries suffered the previous week, the Pioneers fell
to the Atho! High Red Raiders in a hard fought contest
Our last four games of the season proved to be carbon-
copies of one another. In each of the last four games,
the Pioneers staged second-half comebacks that were un-
believable! Trailing Tantasqua 6-2, Southbridge scored
four last period T.D.'s to win 30-6. Running back
Dave Caouette, in a brilliant display, scored three of
the touchdowns, Guy Mathieu the other. The following
week, defensive linebacker Henry Dubreuil took to the
offense and scored a late touchdown to help defeat
St. John's 15-14. Against Wachusett Regional, the
Pioneers scored 21 of its game-winning 23 points in the
last period to defeat the Mountaineers 23-6. Finally,
on Thanksgiving Day, Bob Maramo caught the winning
touchdown pass against the Indians with but 20 seconds
remaining on the clock. Final Score: Southbridge 6-
Bartlett 0. The last four games were truly an amazing
windup to a fine 7 and 2 season.
Though the Pioneers narrowly missed the "Class B" champic
ship, they did win the Border Conference Title. Two of c
gridders, middle linebacker Mike Garcia and quarterback D,
io Ciovacco made the Worcester Telegram and Gazette Sup
All-Star Team. Halfback Dave Caouette made the "Class B" A
Star Team and two-way lineman Dave Benjamin received Ho
orable Mention.
Coach Marino was named the Border Conference "Coach
the Year", and Mike Benjamin given the "Lineman of the Yea
award. Other Pioneers on the Conference All-Star Team wer
Seniors Mike Garcia, John Roy, Marcel Besse, Mike Benjam
Bob Maramo, Henry Dubreuil, Marty Power, and Da
Caouette; Junior Dario Ciovacco and Sophomore Ken
Leblanc.

SOUTHBRIDGE 2 — SUTTON 1 ! Southbridge High School's first
victory ever in its short history of varsity soccer compe-
tition came in but the third game of the 72 season. The
following game, the Pioneers tied the always powerful Bartlett
High Indians, 1-1. This was but the second full year of
soccer for most of the players under Head Coach Gosk, and at
times mastering the European sport proved frustrating. But
it was obvious the boys were progressing. Their teamwork
and passing improved and they played a much more aggressive
hitting game.
The addition of transfer Rich Lees to the offensive line
with Russ Cournoyer and Dave Albani, all Juniors, and Sophomores
Jimmy Marino and Billy Petro improved that facet of the Pioneer's
game. Leading the team's hard-working defensive specialists was
the only Senior starter Co-Captain Brian Dupuis, plus Juniors
Scott Varin, Bruce Galli, David Lacasse, David Ashe,
and Jeff Chasse. Goalie Eliot Peters, also a Junior, proved more
than adequate all season long. The only other Senior on the squad
was Co-Captain Stan Kadziewicz.
Considering how far the team has come in two short seasons, and
the enthusiasm of the many underclassmen on the squad, the future
looks bright for S.H.S. soccer.

Most people thought the 72-73 season
would be spent rebuilding Pioneer basket-
ball fortunes. That seemed to be accurate
thinking considering only super-center Vir
nie Hoffman was back from the previous
season and the team would be heavily load
ed with inexperienced former Junior Varsil
players. After the first four games (3 Losses
and 1 Win), it looked like it was going to be
long basketball season; But then Vinnie am
his yOung teammates began to make belie\
ers out of their fans and won five games in
row. Included in that string was a brilliant
60-56 win over arch-rival Bartlett, fashionei
in Webster, a feat few remembered had
occured in many-a-year.
NEELING: J. Chasse, S. Butler, E. Peters, F. Bousquet, D. Albani, and M. Power. STANDING: Man-
ger J. Daniel, S. Varin, N. Peterson, D. Lacasse, V. Hoffman, B. Galli, D. Ashe, and Coach W. Gosk.
At mid-season the team stalled slightly losing to Prouty in Spen-
cer, defeating Leominster, and then losing the rematch with Bar-
tlett at home. This was followed by six consecutive victories in-
cluding a thirty point win over Tantasqua, 50-42 conquest of
cross-town rival Marianhill, and a 58-53 overtime thriller over
Gardner reversing an earlier loss to the Wildcats.
After their first eighteen games, the Pioneers had a respectable 13
and 5 record, qualifying them for District III Championship play at
the end of the season. They were also selected to enter the Clark
University Tournament (Small Schools Division). In Border Con-
ference action, they were 6 and 2 overall finishing second to the
Bartlett Indians. Not bad for a rebuilding season !

Memorable during the season were the accomplishments of
Senior Captain Vinnie Hoffman. Vinnie averaged 20 points and
well over 20 rebounds per game as well as innumerable blocked
shots. His mere presence in the Pioneer lineup intimidated team
after team. He also wound up his SHS scoring career with well-
over 1,000 points, joining only '65 Alumnus Paul Mani in that ex-
clusive club.
The only other Seniors on the squad were Neil Peterson and Mar-
ty Power. Underclassmen contributing heavily to Pioneer success
were Juniors Scott Butler, David Lacasse and Scott Varin, starters
most of the season. Other important cogs during the season were
Juniors Eliot Peters, Jay Digregorio, Fran Bousquet, David Ashe,
Bruce Galli, and David Albani. The above Juniors and a surprising-
ly strong and scrappy group of J.V. players promises much for fu-
ture Pioneer basketball.

Girls'
Basketball
The Pioneerettes won some big games this season cul-
minating with their best record in SHS history, 13-2.
Through teamwork, determination and encouragement
from coach Eleanor Tremblay, the girls defeated such
teams as Prouty, Douglas and Oxford, the team that
knocked the Pioneerettes out of the opening round of
last year's Girls' Tournament.
Jackie St. Laurent proved to be the team's offensive
sparkplug by finishing the regular season with 204
points, while rookie Sue Peters finished a close second
with 197. Defensively, co-captain Chris Favre controlled
the boards pulling down a total of 227 rebounds, surely
a school record.
Co-Captain Donna Sarrasin, Cecile Nault, and Lisa Cor-
bitt added both offensively and defensively, and the
team wouldn't have been the same without Marilyn
Smith, Debra Tremblay and Cathy Choquet. With a rec-
ord of 13-2, the girls qualified to play in the 3rd Annual
Girl's' Tourney against St. Mary's of Milford.

With 15 wins, only 6 losses
and 1 tie, the Pioneer har-
riers compiled the finest
record ever in the history of

lowing record attests to that
great season:

Traditionally the S.H.S. Softball Team has been a powerhouse, and tradition
wasn't broken during the 72 season as our girls rolled to 12 wins and but 1
loss during the regular season. The following scores are indicative of their
outstanding season: S.H.S. defeated Sutton 7-1, BARTLETT 17-7, Tantasqua
27-9, and Marianhill 22-8 before losing to Marian 21-15. S.H.S. then defeat-
ed Prouty 10-3, Douglas 19-12, Prouty 18-5, Quaboag 10-9, and Auburn 12-5.
In post-season tournament play our gals defeated Auburn 13-8 and lost to
tourney winner Oxford 15-1. Final season record: 13 Wins and but 2 Losses.
Golf 1972
The 1972 edition of the SHS Golf Team posted its fin-
est season ever capturing the Border Conference
Championship with a 7-1 log and boasted an overall
13-1 record. In post-season play, the team won the
District III Central Massachusetts Team Golf Cham-
pionship played at the Indian Meadows Country
Club in Westboro. The team's 309 total was six
strokes better than runnerup West Boylston. The
Pioneer's leading golfer Rob Caprera captured low
medalist honors with a 3 over par 73, quite an ac-
complishment on the rain-soaked course. Paul Ko-
prowski added a 75, Paul LaCoste stroked a 78 and
Jim Ziemski hit an 83.
The District Championship qualified the team for
the State Schoolboy Golf Championship at Pocasset.
Of nine teams competing, the Pioneers finished a
respectable third behind winner Barnstable High
School and runnerup Chicopee High School. Rob
Caprera again led the team firing a 2 over par 74,
Paul Quigley fired an 80, Paul Koprowski an 82 and
Freshman Paul LaCoste an 87.
